Kibana 5.3.1 released

Kibana version 5.3.1 is released, and it includes a couple of important bug fixes and a fix for an open redirect vulnerability in X-Pack security. Shield version 2.4.5 for Kibana has also been released with a fix for the same vulnerability.

With X-Pack installed, Kibana versions before 5.3.1 have an open redirect vulnerability on the login page that would enable an attacker to craft a link that redirects to an arbitrary website. Shield versions in Kibana prior to 2.4.5 are also vulnerable. ESA-2017-04. Users are encouraged to update immediately.
